Maolin National Scenic Area

The Provence of Taiwan: Rinari

After Typhoon Morakot devastated the three townships of northern Pingtung, the Pingtung Government assisted the locals in rebuilding their homes. Majia Farm was selected to be the permanent housing site, and residents from Dashe Village in Sandimen Township, Majia Village in Majia Township, and Haocha Village in Wutai Township all moved to the farm. Houses were established with support from the World Vision, and the new settlement was named Rinari, meaning “the place where we all head to.”

Surrounded by mountains, Rinari enjoys an expansive birds-eye-view of the idyllic Pingbei Plain. As you walk about in Rinari, you shall find churches here and there. Each church has a different exterior, making Rinari a special place. Of course, the churches show how devout the residents are. Why not join ａ “royal reception” accompanied by festive music here. Dance with your host and immerse in pure joy.

When you visit Rinari, remember to take off your shoes before entering someone’s house. This is the uttermost respect you can show to your host. For this reason, Rinari is nicknamed as “the tribe where you must take shoes off.”
